Second— The following arrangements are made to catry out the provisions of the loregoingorder: The 2d, sth aud Gth Army Corps will each be con solidated into two Divisions. The Ist and 2d Divisions of the 3d Corps are transferred to the 2d Corps, preserving their badges and distinctive ma> ks. The 3d Division of the 3d Corps is transferred permanently to the 6th Corps. The three Divisions now forming the Ist Corps are transfened to the sth Corps, preserving their badges and distinctive marks, and on joining the slh Corps they will be consolidated into two divi sions The commanders of divisions transferred to the 2d, sth and 6th Corps will ai once report to the commanders of these corp< for instructions.

The batteries with the seve ral corps in excess of the above allowance will form the artillery reserve. The consolidation of the divisions called for in this crder will be made by the corps commanders concerned, who-are authorized to rear ange the brigades of their respective commands in such manner as they may think best for the s-rvice. The reassignment of officers of the Staff Depart ments consequent upon the reorganization of the army will be made upon the nomination of the chiefs of the Staff Departments at these head quarters. Special instructions will be given hereafter with respect to the 6taffofficers ol the two corps tempo rarily broken up. Third. The Major-General Commanding avails himself of this occasion to say, tnat in view of the reduced strength of nearly all the regiments serv ing in this army, the temporary redaction of the Army Corps to three is a measure imperatively demanded by the best interests of the service, and that the reasons for attaching the Ist and 31 Corps, for the tim« being, toother corps, were in no respect founded upon any supposed inferiority of those corps to o the other corps of this army. * All the coips have equaily proved their valor on many fields, and all have equal claims to the con fidence of the government and of the country. The lit and 3d Corps will retain tneir badges and distinction marks, and! the Major-General Com manding indulges the hope that* tbe ranks of the army will be filled at an early day, so that those corps can again he reorganized.

A letter dated Lake City, Florida, Feb. 15th, to the Charleston Courier , contains the following: * ‘ Some thirty miles from Tallahassee we have a large swamp, and I am correctly informed that there is about 400 deserters nicelv located in it. They have been committing some nuisances and depredations on the neighboring farms. Brigadier- General Garoener dispatched two companies of infantry to arrest the parties, but on going into the swamp, to their place of abode, where our troops demanded a surrender, they .were astonished to find them well supplied with arms and ammuni tion, and a brisk fight took place. Our troops were driven back with heavy loss and some taken prisoners. The deserters had the impudence to parole our men. From this athlir we ordained the lollowing fact: That they received about iwo thousand pounds of ammunition from the enemy blockading, together with most of their bread and clothing, and that they have been all supplied with Enfield Rifles from the same source, and were id daily communication, with the enemy The*e facts having been placed before the Commanding- General of this District, a detachment of Cavalry, Ecoll’s Aitillery, and some Infantry, was on Sunday despatched as a reinforcement, with orders to capture every man in the swamp, and rav 8 th^ twh en captured, if their bountiful iSw&s?is“ ngle intUe airon nothing, then I THE RARITAN AND DELAWARE BAY T?
